The week on the Stock Exchange opened quiet
and rather listless, in which half dozen stocks
monopolized the interest, and two made the
temper of speculation at different periods of the
day. The announcement of proposed extra
issue of stock by the st. Paul company, coming
after the unfavorahle bank statement of Satur-
day. created marked depression in grangers,
in which the general list sympathized to linn
tied extent Later in the day there was a sud
den squirt in Western Union, based upon wide
spread rumors that dividend would shortly be
declared upon the stock, which scheme is said
to be favored by several of the most influential
stockholders. Then the feeling became notice
ably firner throughout the list. There was an
extensive short covering in Pacific Mail through
out the afternoon, and the stock made ma
teria advance The improvement in the market
was also aided late in the day by reduction in
the rates of sterling exchange. The opening
was moderately active and weak, first prices
showing declltes from Saturdays final figures
extending 10 u per cent. Fort Worth and Den
yer and Wheeling and Lake Erie showed consld-
erable strength. After the first hour firmer
tone was impaired TO the trading nQtwithstand-
ing which Tennessee coal dropped three points.
Western Union suddenly sprang into proni.

fractional gaines were recorded, Pacific Mail
afterward becoming the leading strong stock.
Prices shaded off little in the last hour, but
the close was steady and generally near she best
prices of the day Total sales $4,000 shares.

The Pulaski citizen. [volume] (Pulaski, Tenn.) 1866-current, 1887-01-13

The January number of THE CosMo-
POLIrAN contains a remarkably bright
aud interesting series of articles. Low
ers OF first-class fiction should not fail
to read "Signor To-" the third and
fourth chapters of which are published
in this number. This story was writ
ten by Salvatore Farina, the great
Italian novelist, and is the most re-
markable and facinating of his works.
For wit, humor, pathOs, for insight in
to human nature, it is without an equal
in any language. Mr.. Frank G. Car
penter's article on "The Real Martha
Washington" presents new, interest
ing and unconventional view OF the
wife of the first president. 1t is certain
to arouse much controversy. An illus
trated article entitled, "From Beirut to
Baalbec" By the Rev. L. B. Platt is a
lively and humorous description of a
trip on horseback between these famous
cities. The scenes and customs that he
describes are very curious and amusing.
No one should fail to read Mr.. VIM. NJ.
Briggs article entitled, ga Humble
Castle in Spain," which is filled with
deliciously humorous character and ma
ture sketches, obtained during resi-
dence IN the Iberian peninsula. There
is striking Russian story by M. Gar
shire, very strong and bright story
by Louise Chandler Moulton, and a
weird German story by Earnest Wis
ebert. The number contains many
other articles, poems, ETC., by we'll
known writers. Price 20 cts. per copy.
For sale by all newsdealers. Schlieht
& Field Co., publishers, Rochester,
New York.

The Wright Man.

Mr.. j. FL. Wright, a native of this
place, who has been connected with
the PULASKI CITIZEN for a year, has
recently acceptek position on the
pictorial department of the Nash
vile American. The people Of
this place know that he possesses
rare skill as a draughtsman, and
are glad that he has foundtemploy-
ment in the field for which he is
specially endowed by nature, and
in which there are such chances fol
promotionand distinction. There
will come from his pen no such mis-
cradle cartoons IS defaced the Amer.

or appropriateness. -Fayettevillt

The Pulaski citizen. [volume] (Pulaski, Tenn.) 1866-current, 1887-01-13

Hon. Scion f. Rose is making a
fine impression at Nashville, Ii
there is no caucus he has splen-
did chance to be elected senator.
He will not oppose caucus, how.
ever, if the party so decides. His
fealty would lead him to accept de-
feat rather than antagonize his
party. The CITIZEN desires earn
estly to see him elected and it OPP
poses any scheme concocted in the
name OF democracy in any one
mans interest. Col. Rose is not
responsible for our views. If our
legislators want to see him 90 In
they will hold aloof from com bina-
tions and schemes gotten up in os-
tensible patriotism but really to
elect one man only. Let's have a
clean, open, fair fight We want
our man to have a chance. He is
as sound a democrat as breathes
and has a right TO fair showing
We want to emphasize the fact,
however, that Col. Rose is in no
way responsible or privy to these
statements.

Southern Railroad Construction.

There were 1926 miles of railroad
built in the south in 1885 at an es-
timated cost of $36, $4,000. There
were above 5000 miles built in the
north and west. The indications
are that these figures will be nearly
reversed for 1887. In Tennessee
the Railway Age put the construc-
ton at 26 miles. There are fully
1000 miles of roads projected in
Tennessee now. At $4,000 per
mile it will require $20,000,000 to
build them. There are two prime
objects in view-the opening up of
the Cumberland river coal and iron
fields and shorter eastern connec-
tions. Birmingham is the focus.
No man thinks of building a rail-
road without Birmingham con-
nection. But Birmingham, Mem
phis, Atlanta and Chattanooga are
already well supplied with roads.
Nashville needs new roads more
than any other city in the south.
| Birmingham being connected in all
| directions, Sheffield is becomin g
the focus and new railroads are all
heading that way.
When Capt. Dougherty went into
the Cincinnati Southern office in
Cincinnati to talk 10 them about
building a road from the upper
Cumberland to Sheffield he glanced
at the company's magnificent maj
on the wall and saw some one hat
already drawn pencil mark along
the very route he came to suggest
1t is one of the inevitables. Every
man who looks at the map ant
knows the facts locates the route il
an instant.
